Thursday, while out practicing with the boys at Vinton street park, he made auch a phenomenal record on the Initial bag that he was at once urged to take the sack for the season and he Is now considering. Beside his wonderful work at first base he batted with un precedented skill. He came to bat four times and made a home run each time ex cept the last, when he knocked out a three-bagger One of the home runs went over the northwest corner of St. Joseph's hospital on Tenth street, ftVe blocks away. Pa says when he takes his position on first Joe Lolan can sit on the bench and run things and help Brother Dave with the money bag, since Orotte has balked on that Job.

When asked what he thought of Jimmy Parr, the English champion wno lost with Farmer Burns In Omaha a few weeks ago, he said: "Pair Is a very good man. I met him four j ears ago, when, I think, he was even better than he is today, naturally, since he was 32 years old then. But Parr todav la good enough to give the best of them all thev want to do. MeLeod threw Parr four years ago. He and Farmer Burns once wrestled a draw I for over an hour, but his longest draw I was three hours, not with Farmer Burns, I though. McIeod, perhaps, has met as many men ' on me mat as any in tne business now, with the exception, of course, of Farmer Burns. It Is the hope of fans In Omaha that a match can be arranged between Mc- Ieod and some other good man Burns, Beel, J'arr or Dwyer. Old Farmer Burns will be seen on the mat at the Auditorium Friday night, but " "i"! n ,Vr wui ,iV. h i? generally seen.

Big Tim Jordan, the Superbaa' first bag man, who Is refusing to slp-n unless he gets a $3,000 salary, sava It s a mistake to try to clout the ball off the lot when you're batting a southpaw delivery. "Don't swing at the ball when you face n left-hander, says Tim. "Just chop It and vou'll get the best of their delivery In the long run." Don't hear of any base ball players pull ing nway from the plate at the southern hotels. Medical experts are baffled. They hare failed Ignomlnlously to diagnose the fever that Infects ball players every spring. "I'm Impatient for the fray." Is trie bur den of the correspondence that passes be tween player and manager. The Infected player la overanxious to handle the bat and spear liners. He can hardlv be held In restraint. This Is when the fever Is at at Its height before the play begins to circulate regularly. It's never dangerous. The player recovers when the base ball season Is advanced a month or two. Then he writes his family: "I'm praying for the wlndup." In July the month of October looks like the best month of the vear to a big leaguer.

The notification of the sudden death of Brigadier General Theodore J. Wlnt at Hotel Normandle, Philadelphia, Thursday morning at 2 o'clock, waa received at army headquarters in Omaha, where he was stationed, at an early hour Thursday morning with profound sorrow. Only a few days ago the Intelligence was received here that General Wlnt had Improved so materially from his Illness aa to be removed from the hospital to tho hotel and every hope was entertained of his speedy recovery. Thla Information waa received direct from General Wlnt him self. His Illness was a general breaking down of his system from many years of active service In the army, dating from his first enlistment aa a private soldier In a Penn sylvania cavalry regiment In 1S61. Ho had been in active army service since, rising from the grade of private tn the volunteer army to that of a brigadier general in the regular establishment, every step of his promotion being the 'merited reward of gallantry and heroism. He waa slightly wounded during the civil war at the battle of South Mountain and received a severe wound in the leg while major of the Tenth United Btates cavalry at the battle of San Juan Hill, May 1, 1898, In the Spunlsh Amerlcan war. It waa this latter wound that gave General Wlnt the limp that was so well known to bia hoat of Omaha friends. Thrown from Anto. He waa also injured by being thrown from an automobile during the army ma neuvers at Fort Riley In 19u6, while he was In command of the maneuver camp there. He also suffered a alight injury at Fort Dea Moimea a short while thereafter by being thrown from a horse. However, these injurloa were but slight and never seriously discommoded him. . On a recoirt vlait to the western pouts, in company with Secretary of War Taft, Gen eral Wlnt waa taken seriously 111 at Chey enne and returned to Omaha. Ever un complaining, rugged and hearty, he was not prone to mention his illness and few knew of his disabilities. General Wlnt was a native of Pennsyl vania. He entered the sorvloe aa private in Company V, Sixth Pennsylvania cavalry, October 12, 1861, and served In that com pany as corporal and sergeant. July 1. 1864, he waa commissioned first lieutenant in the same regiment, aervlng until Sep tember 30 of the same year. He enlisted aa private In the regular army February 20, 1865, and November 24 of the same ytar waa commissioned as second lieutenant In the Fourth cavalry, accepting December 1.

Alter tha war he was actively engaged In Indian campaigns against the Com manches and Southern Cheyennes in Ttxa, Indian Territory and Ntw Mexico, as a subaltern oftiiwr in tho Fourth United Btates cavalry. One of the must notable of these WhM the Miles expvd.llun aaainst tha noted Southern Cheyenne chief, Stone Calf, In 1S74-5, In which General Wlnt dis tinguished himself for conspicuous gal lantry. He subsequently engaged In the campaign against the Klamath Indiana In Oregon, with his regiment, the Fourth cavalry.

After the Santiago campaign General Wlnt was made lieutenant colonel of tha Sixth cavalry and accompanied the regi ment to the Philippines. He waa engaged with his command In practically all of the campaigns in the Islands until the siege of Peking, China, when he waa aent with two squadrons of the regiment to China He remained at Tien Tsln with his com mand and detachments of the allied armies to guard the base of supplies established there, and later Joined the army advancing against Peking. After the relief of the lm- ! prisoned legations at Peking he returned to Tien Tsln, and It was during an attack upon that base of supplies by the Boxers that General Wlnt conspicuously distin guished himself In command of the cavalry division that repulsed the attack and ef fected a complete defeat of the Boxers. For this achievement he was especially commended by Major General Chaffee, and the following year General Wlnt was made colonel of the Sixth cavalry. R-turnln? with his regiment to the Philippines, he rendered most efficient service in the pacifl cation of southern Luzon and was pro moted to brigadier general for gallant and meritorious services. Cornea to Omaha.

He succeeded ! Major General Samuel S. Sumner, who I only a few months previously succeeded Major General John 8. Bates. j Upon assuming command of the Depart ment of Missouri February 23. 1904, he at once won upon the entire community for his genial manners and soon became one of the most popular commanders ever hold ing this responsible and exalted position. Both he and his amiable wife at once be came prominent social figures and num bered their friends only by the entire com munity. In the fall of 1906, upon the break ing out of the Cuban insurrection, he was assigned to the command of the army of concentration at Newport News, Va., and superintended the shipment of the provi sional army to Cuba. In December last he was assigned to the command of the Amer ican army of occupation In Cuba, succeed ing General Franklin Bell, and during tha Jamaica earthquake was one of the first in the field to proffer food and assistance to the stricken people there. At Newport News General Wlnt suffered an attack of what was reported at tha time to be ptomaine poisoning and he never regained his health. He was still suffering from the after effects of this when sent to Havana to relieve General Bell of the com mand of the American forces In Cuba. Soon afterwards his symptoms became acute and he waa relieved by General Barry last month and ordered home for treatment. General Wlnt la survived by his wife only, they having no children. Tha members of the army staff at Omaha have all Joined In sending telegrams of condolence to Mrs. Wlnt and will also send a suitable floral tribute.

March 21.-For the first time In ten years all rail communication from San Francisco and the north Is sev ered today, as a result of the floods and consequent washouts and landslides. All three trans-continental lines are affected Southern Pacific, Salt Lake nnd Santa Fe the last named, however, suffering the least. The Southern Pacific coast line Is blocked by a big cave-In at Santa Mar garita tunnel, north of San Luis Obispo, and traffio will be suspended many days. The valley line Is closed by a slide at San Fernando tunnel, and no trains can pass for several days. In addition, slides have occurred at tunnel No. 17 and at Tehachlpl. The Santa Fe and Southern Pacific eastern llneB are open for traffic unimpeded. The Santa Fe Is transferring passengers to boats at Stockton and expects to main tain traffic between there and San Fran cisco by that means. The Salt Lake line Is In worse con dition than ever. For weeks all through traffic on the Clark road has been sus pended, owing to the destruction of eighty miles of roadbed in the Meadow Valley canyon In Utah, Hundreds of men have been working incessantly In an effort to bridge the gap. Yesterday notice wna re ceived that rain Is again falling there, and there will be no hope of repairing the line of through traffio by April 1. The road cannot be restored In months. The damage In Meadow Valley canyon has, It Is stated, already exceeded $?,0(X,000.
